Peter Wright concluded proceedings in the opening phase of action in the PDC Home Tour topping the final group on leg difference.

Wright spoke afterwards about playing in the tournament for the second time after failing to get through the opener; he said that he is pleased to be through after not having a too heavy practice regime as of late.
“I had about one and a half day’s practice and I felt really good. I think I’ve only thrown about 12 darts recently because I’ve got so many jobs to do around the house," said Wright.
“Last time on the opening night of the Home Tour it was a bit of a shock and a bit weird to be playing online. But I felt better this time.
“I’m still using the same darts from the World Championships, just changed the points. I was looking forward to playing Krzysztof Ratajski because I got my record average against him last year, I wanted to do that again.
“The bug flew in the way just as I was going for a treble 20 and it frightened me and the dart went in the treble 18!
“Adam Hunt also showed how good he is by beating Krzysztof. I’m glad to get the second chance to play in it and get through to the last 32.
“Adam did a great job, it was hard work to beat him. We had a scrappy leg but I pinched that one and that was crucial. Swings and roundabouts, happy to be in the next phase.”
